Re: Ashton Eaton PR's and possible WR
Posted: Aug 18, 2011
Eaton did throw 47.36m (155-4) in the discus this past weekend and also ran the 100 in 10.26 (wind legal), high jumped 2.10m (6-10.75) and threw the shot 13.96m (45-9.75). The shot was really his only "weak"event.

Russ Hodge was about 225 lbs I think at the peak of his career. He might be pretty high on the list in the 225 category.

Clay’s Weak 1500 Causes Serious Concerns to the Sport
3200guy wrote on June 13, 2012
Clay's 1500 pr is actually 4:38.93 not 7 seconds faster than 4:41.65. As someone who likes seeing guys like Curtis Beach and Joe Detmer do well in the decathlon, I still admire Clay for how good he's been at most of the other events. I agree with B. J. in that when Clay has a comfortable lead going in to the 1500, it makes sense for him to run the 1500 at a more conservative pace so as not to risk "blowing up" and losing a nearly gift-wrapped title.

For what it's worth, though Clay isn't at the level, overall in the decathlon, he was in 2008, I read an article a few months ago that said he thinks he can pr in the 1500 and 400 this summer.
